United States Parole Commission Extension and Sentencing Commission Authority Act of 2005

This bill extends the operation of the United States Parole Commission for an additional three years, ensuring the continued supervision of certain federal and D.C. offenders who remain under the older parole system. It also directs the U.S. Sentencing Commission to increase federal penalties for two specific types of crimes: making false statements or obstructing investigations related to international or domestic terrorism, and offenses involving the trafficking or use of anabolic steroids. For the average citizen, these changes mean stricter sentencing guidelines for crimes involving national security and illegal performance-enhancing drugs.
